Steffy: B&B Hot Plots September 28-October 2: Fashion Faux Pas and Pregnancy Puzzles

The war between Logan Designs and Forrester Creations is heating up, and Dylan could get caught in the middle on The Bold and the Beautiful. Hot plots and spoilers for the week of Monday, September 28, through Friday, October 2, 2026, have Katie contemplating a power play, while Carter continues to convince Steffy to be his and Daphne's donor and surrogate.

Katie (Heather Tom) is going to put her next plan into action. She sees that Zende (Delon de Metz) is ripe for a corporate raid. But how to get a message to him that she's interested? Katie probably still has the designer's email, but why send an email when you can use a more personal touch?

Dylan came to Logan Designs innocently enough. She wanted to visit her boyfriend Will's (Crew Morrow) place of employment. But if Katie asks Dylan to get a message to Zende that she wants to talk to him, two things will happen. First, Katie might be able to lure Zende over to Logan Designs.

Second, Katie will realize she can get Dylan to do her bidding. But will Katie use Dylan's cooperation as a sign of family loyalty or evidence of how she'd betray her bosses at Forrester Creations? Dylan could be between a rock and a hard place. What will she do? Later in the week, watch for Will to warn Dylan about Katie's demands!

Carter's Concerns

Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) doesn't see any other way out of his situation with Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) other than to continue ahead with his plan. He wants Steffy to go ahead and be a surrogate and a donor for him and Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire).

Carter feels that no one would suspect that Steffy's baby, fathered by Carter, was conceived naturally. They'd just believe that Steffy went to a doctor's office and had a procedure done that resulted in her being pregnant.

What Carter's plan can't possibly take into account, though, is Steffy's emotional state. She's a very honest woman. Steffy wants to come clean with Finn (Tanner Novlan) about what's going on.

The situation is going to become more complicated this week as Daphne Rose informs Steffy's father, Ridge (Thorsten Kaye), and stepmother, Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang), about the baby news. Steffy may feel that she has no control over the matter at all once more people, especially her father, find out about the plan for her to carry Carter's baby.

Will Dylan go ahead with Katie's plan? Can Carter get Steffy to proceed as his and Daphne's donor and surrogate? Sound off in the comments section!
